Every year I start out with a lofty wish list of things I’d like to do. I quickly come back to earth as my daily tasks take over my day and I realize that with three children 5 & under, this may not be the season for most of what I’d like to do. Go […] Read more…

There is Hope on the Other Side of Failure
Ok, I know I said I wasn’t posting this week. But the end of Lent is nearly here. And I’ve failed miserably. Not only did I fail in doing most of my Lent Resolutions, I’ve failed in my general February and March goals, too. My February goals were to say a daily rosary, exercise frequently, […] Read more…
New Year, New List
Image by Great Beyond via Flickr Last year, I made a 101 in 1001 list. I don’t know what I was thinking making what is essentially a three year plan when I’m not done having babies. Babies always throw off the game plan as you adjust to their needs & personalities. Anyway, I decided to […] Read more…
101 in 1001 Update
I meant to post this while I was away on vacation, but well, let’s just say I actually *gasp* enjoyed my vacation!

101 in 1001 Update
Well, I’ve done better than I thought and worse than I’d hoped. I always think I can do more than I’m capable of doing at once. I did, however, make some progress. 3. Pray the rosary daily. — Luckily, DH came back from a silent retreat and added a family Rosary into our schedule. Yeah! […] Read more…
Getting Unstuck – 101 goals in 1001 days
I’ve been inspired by several bloggers who have been sharing their progress on goals in the common format of 101 goals in 1001 days. I’ve been floundering in not enough busyness and spending too much idle time or time on wrong priorities. Add that to the fact that a new liturgical year starts Sunday and […] Read more…
(Belated) Phillippians 3:14 Friday #2
Sigh… I’ve gotten a ton accomplished this week but none of it seems to be on my list. Reading – I started Animal, Vegetable, Miracle. Then my ILL of Practicing Hospitality came in, no renewal allowed so I’ve been devouring that instead. Crafts – no progress. Projects- Office. Negatory. In fact, it’s WORSE than before […] Read more…
Philippians 3:14 Fridays #1
I’ve been contemplating joining since I heard of this and really need to do it. So many things are just not working for me and I’m not putting my energy where I want it to go. I’ve been lazy and overwhelmed and wasting time on unimportant things. Thanks to Which Proverbs 14:1 Woman? for giving […] Read more…
